| Meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month during September through June. Meetings are hosted by members throughout Nebraska. Speakers from NDEQ, EPA, NICE members and others provide timely presentations on topics of interest to NICE members. A portion of each meeting is devoted to updating members on current regulatory and environmental developments on national, state and local levels.RSVP REQUIRED.We will be asking that members RSVP for each meeting at least two days priorto the meeting. Many of our hosts have requested the names of attendees to expedite the security process and it is only common courtesy. If there is a chance that you will make it to the meeting, please RSVP even if your plans might change. It is easier to remove a name than to add it at the time of the meeting. There is no need to let us know if you are not planning to be there.
